The Surge Take: Royse City

Royse City scores 88.2/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #8 of 55 Dallas-area submarkets we track. That puts it in the top tier of the Dallas market — the score blends guest demand drivers, proximity to attractions and employers, and property fundamentals, and Royse City performs across the board. The average listing here grosses $33,546/year — about 32% below the Dallas metro average, so unit selection and design matter more than usual.

The revenue profile is a $217 average daily rate at 54% occupancy (RevPAR $92). That's a healthy mid-market ADR — the sweet spot for durable demand from both leisure and work travel. As a suburban submarket, demand skews toward families, relocations, and medical or project stays — larger homes tend to outperform.

On the regulatory side, Royse City falls under Royse City, which is currently permissive: No dedicated STR ordinance found; 7% city HOT applies. Low regulatory friction is a real advantage — just verify HOA and deed restrictions, which apply regardless of city or county rules.
